After selling my 305 BHP edition 30 with huge spec & mods I'm craving something with more power. I currently drive a KO3 GTI with a great factory spec for added luxury
I was thinking E60 M5, B7 RS4, E90 M3 and even a Porsche cayman S. All the cars mentioned are expensive tho and would mean selling my GTI which ATM I'm not getting the money I want for it.
So it came down to an E46 M3 manual coupe or an E39 M5.
The four doors, extra capacity and power swayed me to the M5. A friend of a friend has recently just put his black one up for sale, its a facelift with a good spec and service history. Only downside is, it has 140K on the clock.
I was thinking of keeping my GTI for the time being and using it as a daily & buying the M5 and going down the straight pipe, and Y pipe route on the M5
I know a car with this Milage will struggle to sell on but for around 5K I can't be too fussy either. A lot of car for the money IMO.
What's people's opinions on my idea and is there anything else out there that represents as such good value for money as the M5
